I have attached to the first post an example of the Completed PDF Inspection Document produced each time an inspection is saved. Inspection details shown are also just "examples".... but you get the idea...
The three pages indicate the "Audit Trail" of proper inspections:
Page 1:
A Clean Inspection - No Defects Found (like it should be...)
Note the format of the page. Inspection details will wrap to three columns as required. You have the option to print this copy and have the repair person sign it (if you like paper copies).
Page 2:
Indicates a Minor Defect. During your (thorough) inspection, you noticed the trailer harness plug socket was damaged and needs replacement. No problem - a bit of wire held it in place until you reached the auto parts store where you purchased a new one...
Page 3:
You replaced the socket at your new campsite (handy man that you are) but now noticed that the right rear is flat. Obviously - you can't tow this unit until the tire is fixed. Major Defect - Unit Placed OUT OF SERVICE until tire is fixed. The expected process is that YOU noted it (recorded as MAJOR defect), YOU fixed it and recorded another inspection to indicate it was resolved...
Any of you Big Rig Truckers out there will recognize the form.
Thanks
Mike
